Boshetunmay
Who ran away from home being just fifteen
Will hardly understand one who finished the best school.
One, who has made a good plan for [the] lifetime ahead,
Has no reason to think of anything else.
We drink tea, sitting in old flats,
Wait [for the] summer, sitting in old flats,
Flats with electric supply, lights,
Gas, telephone, and hot city water,
Hardwired radio, hardwood floors,
And separate bathrooms, brick construction,
One family, maybe two, three will fit...
Many auxiliary premises,
Bottom and top floors won't be considered,
Few steps from subway, center...
Boshetunmay...
Everyone says: we're together...1
Everyone says, but a few know exactly where we are.
But from our chimneys comes an unusual smoke.
Stop! The danger zone's entered! The brain's at work here!
Boshetunmay...
- 1. a word play, also: we've arrived there (we got into some [bad] place)

I realize that pressing "Thanks"
is really hard for most of you, yet
you should keep on trying...
